The extruder model resource
You can create extruder model resources only by using an existing text cast member. In many cases, you may choose
to use the 3D text capabilities of the Property inspector instead.
Creating an extruder model resource is simple. If member 1 is a text cast member and member 2 is a 3D cast member,
use the following script:
member(1).extrude3d(member(2))
This generates a model resource in member 2 that is an extrusion of the 2D text in member 1.
Extruder model resources inherit all the 3D-related properties of the source text cast member.
For example:
mr = member("text").extrude3d(member("3D"))
put mr.smoothness
-- 5
put mr.tunnelDepth
-- 50
Cast member methods
If the models and model resources you need aren't contained in a particular cast member, the following methods let
you create models and model resources by using other 3D cast members at runtime:
Description
A drag value affecting simulation at each anima-
tion step.
Vector representing simulated gravity. The
vector's length indicates its strength.
A vector representing simulated wind pushing
particles in a given direction. The vector's length
indicates its strength.
